What is soooooo special about this tree by the koalas that they can spend HOURS here (whereas most people go to the zoo to look at animals :-P)?

Bread break.

Hmmm, not quite sure if that’s what the narwhal’s tusk is for, E. :-\

How old are ya, bruh?

Been checking on our new abode… Seemingly moving along as fast as Mr. Turtle, haha.

Drills on the court w/ Coach.

Our current ‘hood has been outdoing themselves every year w/ the Halloween decor.

And then this happened. Mommy shed a few tears. We’ve been using it as our candy dish the last few years, with it sitting on a chair outside while we accompanied E through the streets trick-or-treating. E decided to help us by pulling the chair into the house and welp, the dish fell right through the opening of the chair. Things, just things. But it’s hard to let go of this painted pottery from Mommy’s bachelorette party that holds so much sentimentality and history. It’s been with us all these years… With us packing up the house for the move, Mommy was ready to trash the pieces but Daddy convinced her to save them all in a container. One day, we’ll put it back together again. One day…

Pre-sailing prep talk.

He’s been happy on the water in the sabot.

Riggin’.

Different day, same napping position. :)) Growing day by day… It’s okay to pace yourself, son!

Writers/Literacy event @ school.

Shrinky dinks!

What was soooooo funny, T?

A Mandalorian is practicing piano. :)

And parading @ school. :-P

G appears as himself as he shuns costumes, haha.

@ the Liberty Station patch.

He really loved sailing camp so we started after school sailing.

Mommy’s been working on the deck while waiting for E. Not too shabby of a view. :)

Soaking these sunrises over the mountains before we move… will miss these views but the proximity to office (for Y) and school will be nice.

Trip around the sun for Mommy and year of school for E. Thanks, Uncle Dan, for getting acai bowls delivered!

New house progress…

We could catch the air show from the 2nd floor. It’ll be nice to watch from home next year! But also loud…

Signed our names in the frame.

We had like 1 week of school and then Labor Day long weekend! It was hooootttttt so a beach day was in order.

How have we missed this mural with his school in PB? SD never ceases to throw us pleasant little surprises. :)

Making that zoo membership worthwhile. Stopped by when we forgot that libraries aren’t open on Sundays anymore.

First time (that we can recall) catching brown bear.

New boba place (that started in Malaysia).

School is tiring!
